Meng Youning spoke softly, "But there doesn't seem to be any major conflict between being a civil servant and having good skills, right?"
Sang Luan was silent for a moment, "It seems so."
Immediately afterwards, Sang Luan and Meng Youning made an appointment to go to Qiu Zhuangxie together.
Qiu Zhuangxie is now in Shengjing. In addition to her own family, she has also specially authorized one family in the east and one family in the south of the city.
Although the business is not as good as theirs, it can still generate some profit.
Add to that the income generated by some retail investors, and even if they do nothing now, they can still earn thousands of taels of silver just by sitting there every day.
This is just a conservative estimate.
Qiuzhuang is located in the second floor compartment.
"After we leave, if Qiu Zhuangxie wants His Majesty to continue to take care of her, she will have to offer some tangible benefits." Sang Luan drooped her eyelids slightly, her gaze falling on the paper on the table.
What was written on the paper was Qiu Zhuangxie's income and expenditure record for the past month.
The only difference between them and the shops that opened up later is that they source their own raw materials and all the processes are done manually.
No need to buy other expensive things.
The recipe is in the hands of Sang Luan and Meng Youning.
Meng Youning glanced at the contents of the paper and pushed it aside. "If we want tangible benefits, then we have no choice but to discuss this deal with His Majesty."
Sang Luan hummed lightly, "I thought so too. With His Majesty's protection, it can last a little longer."
An hour later.
In the imperial study.
"Not bad! I didn't expect that in just a few days, you've already developed the shop to such a great level." Emperor Zhaowu raised his eyebrows slightly, his words full of praise, "You two are truly promising businessmen."
He put down the paper in his hand and said, "But what's the point of showing me the income and expenditure?"
He raised his eyes and slowly looked at Sang Luan and Meng Youning in front of him.
Sang Luan and Meng Youning knelt down towards Emperor Zhaowu at the same time.
Emperor Zhaowu silently watched the two people's actions, "What are you doing?"
Sang Luan: "I came here today to fulfill the agreement that Your Majesty made with us several months ago. Now that I have completed what I was supposed to do, the only thing left is you."
Meng Youning stretched out his hands and pointed at the records on the table, "And these are also our gifts to His Majesty."
Sang Luan then spoke, "From now on, this Qiuzhuang Xie will not only be ours, His Majesty will also have a certain share, and at the end of each year we can divide the money according to our share."
Emperor Zhaowu looked alert and said, "I didn't invest any money in the beginning."
"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. No money is needed. Your Majesty, you only need..."
It took an hour before I successfully obtained the divorce agreement.
Sang Luan and Meng Youning looked at each other with relief.
I finally got the divorce papers.
"Remember to take everything you need with you," Sang Luan patiently instructed Meng Youning. "Three days from now, at twilight hour, we'll gather outside Tianxiang Tower and leave the city gate together. There's someone waiting at the gate. The pass and other necessary items are on that person. Once we get them, we can head south."
Meng Youning nodded heavily, "Okay! See you in three days!"
On the second day, Meng Youning was so bored staying in the mansion that she went out to meet Sang Luan.
When two people are together, even if they don’t say anything or do anything, they will feel extremely safe and happy.
The only good thing for the two of them in recent times is that no matter when Meng Youning goes to look for Sang Luan, she can find her without being discovered.
In the past, I always paid attention to whether Feng Hengzhi would find out.
Now I am much more casual.
The hour of Hai.
There was no one outside.
The wind made the surrounding grass and trees rustle.
Sang Luan and Meng Youning supported each other.
Sang Luan pointed at the stars in the sky and said, "Ningning, we should have been like this a long time ago."
Meng Youning chuckled twice and was about to reply.
Suddenly, the two men stopped and stared straight ahead.
At this moment, a figure appeared in front of them, coming towards them against the light.
Sang Luan's pupils widened slightly, and the corners of her eyes slowly rose.
The teardrop mole at the corner of the eye looks particularly charming under the moonlight.
It was not until they got closer that they could see clearly who was in front of them.
Tu Ling.
Sang Luan pulled Meng Youning and turned to walk to the other side. "If we can't afford to offend them, why not hide from them? Let's go."
The two have already agreed to try to avoid direct conflict with Tu Ling in the next two days.
However, they don't want to cause trouble, but some people can't sit still.
"Wait a minute." Tu Ling suddenly spoke.
Sang Luan curled her lips and said, "You asked us to wait, so we have to wait?"
At the same time, he quickened his pace.
Seeing that the two of them didn't stop.
Tu Ling quickly picked up her clothes and hurried forward to stand in front of the two men.
Tu Ling looked puzzled, "Why are you watching me run so fast?"
Sang Luan's eyes were rolling up to the sky.
"If you have nothing to do all day, just find a class to attend." Sang Luan muttered softly.
Tu Ling's brows tightened, "What do you mean?"
Sang Luan's voice suddenly rose. "If you have nothing to do, please move aside."
After she finished speaking, she pulled Meng Youning aside without even glancing at Tu Ling.
Tu Ling never gave up.
She turned around and grabbed Sang Luan's wrist tightly.
"Actually, if we really go by age, I should be two years older than you. I won't call you sister, otherwise, if people knew, I'm afraid it would be a joke."
